Houdini Death Punch3/16/2021
But did you know that according to Houdini, his toughest escape attempt was from a single pair of handcuffs.No seriously, throughout his lifetime Houdini escaped from prison cells, straight-jackets, crates weighed down with lead in the process of being thrown into a river and one time he even escape from the belly of a fucking whale.
Meaning to escape he had to pick 3 separate locks, in total darkness, while only being able to move his hands a few inches, underwater. They couldnt have made the stunt more difficult if they put him in concrete shoes and even then we suspect that Houdini would have been able to somehow untie them. Houdini Death Punch How To Make HandcuffsThe Mirror then asked Houdini if hed be willing to put these handcuffs to the ultimate test by escaping from them in front of an audience in March of that year, an offer Houdini readily accepted because if theres one thing he knew, it was how to make handcuffs his bitch. The bemused organisers complied and handed the magician a small cushion, who responded with a curt nod before stepping back behind the sheet to continue trying to escape. Houdini explained that he was having trouble manoeuvring himself with his coat in the way and that he could escape, if they allowed him to take it off. The organisers, fearing that Houdini might sneak a peek at how the cuffs worked, said no, stating that theyd only take of the cuffs if he admitted hed been bested. He then stepped behind the sheet for a final time and walked back out a few moments later carrying the shackles. No doubt while giving the organiser an unflinching, I fucking told you so stare. However, he dislikes that virtually every fact dispensed by another website was on Reddit two days earlier.
